Authorities have launched a homicide investigation following the tragic death of a 23-year-old California college student, Menghan Zhuang, also known as Emily King. Zhuang was discovered with multiple upper body injuries in her off-campus apartment in Newhall, California, on February 4. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that this was not a random act of violence.
According to Lt. Michael Modica, Zhuang's roommate found her lifeless body in their apartment. First responders pronounced Zhuang dead at the scene. It was revealed that Zhuang had returned home with a male companion the night before her death, who was later seen on video footage climbing out of her second-story window the day before she was found deceased.
